Why am I not surprised in the slightest that Senaturd Hagel was traveling with Biden and Kerry?

Tempting as it might be to do otherwise, I am going to wish for their safe rescue by a group of brave Marines, and their subsequent bare-bottom spanking by that same group.

"Third thread"

Do you suppose that's because it's a slow news day or just a hopeful news day?

WASHINGTON - A helicopter carrying three senior U.S. senators made an emergency landing in Afghanistan on Thursday.

Sens. John Kerry, Joseph Biden and Chuck Hagel were aboard the aircraft, according to Jon Summers, a spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.

Biden's press secretary, Elizabeth Alexander, said the helicopter made an unscheduled landing because of a snowstorm.

"There were no injuries and all members of the traveling party were safely transported to their destination at Bagram Air Base," she said.

The lawmakers are on a trip this week that includes stops in India, Turkey and Pakistan.

Kerry and Biden are Democrats from Massachusetts and Delaware, respectively, and the Republican Hagel is from Nebraska.

Kerry’s big head probably caused a sudden weight shift.
